I don't realy like it. The green looks kinda saturated. The skin looks kinda gray-ish and the lips aren't .. nice looking? Eh, nice try, though.

i hope you know what surreal is.
and i hope you know the difference between being opinionated and giving constructive critisism.

o believe me she does.. and were judging your art work with honesty.. rolleyes.gif
well i dont like the left eye cause you got some green in the eye and i would of prefered if you colored the other cheek too.

It just doesn't do it for me but good try.

The green a blue is great!
I love the purple too, but I think you should've made it either green or blue.
I think you chose great colors, and it looks really good.

I understand your concept but I'd just like to say that I don't see a whole lot of difficulty going on with a surrealistic colourization. So a more precise eye for details will balance things out. Watch out for things like the feathered green/purple part running into the eye and the bit of yellow that seeps into the ear.

Also, if you're going to use surrealism as a theme, try out some other blending options other than color. Try color burn, linear burn, soft light...all of those. They'll give you more interesting looking colourizations.

Oh, and also, I think the blue part would look better if it was on top of the green, running along the side of her face and a little across the temple. But that's just my opinion.

^ What she said. :) I think you did a great job on the hair. But like Gigi said, if you're going for surrealism, do it full out. I love the green on the cheek by the way. (Actually I think all the colors look good)

I like surreal art, so I hope you post more. :)

I really like it, you did a great job. The only complaint is the cheek thing: it's only colored one one check and it does look a bit sloppy, like someone did her makeup wrong. However, I do love the concept and your creativity. I really liked it. :]

It is very creative. I actually like the rainbow-ness of it.
yeah. maybe you should color the right cheek. It might be hard, but it might look more non-empty.
I do like it. flowers.gif

Hm, my favorite would have to be the 1st one.
The colours are toned down a bit there, and I love her makeup as well.
